Chapter 664: Shield
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
The Crown Prince was a ruler. When he heard about this, he was even angrier than Xie Qiao was.
Those hooligans were usually either ostentatious, deceiving, or harassing people. Most of them were watched by the government. As soon as they committed a crime, it would be easy to catch them. However, people who were hiding in the dark were different.
They were good at hiding. They suddenly attacked and actually kidnapped young ladies or even ruined their reputation. Their thoughts were even more vicious. Or, They had committed many big mistakes in private, but they had been lucky enough to escape. On the surface, they pretended to be good citizens…
“I’ll leave the rest to others to investigate.” Zhao Xuanjing felt sorry for Xie Qiao.
He wondered how many ghouls she had to serve to be able to survive until now.
Xie Qiao nodded in agreement.
It was already late, so she parted ways with Zhao Xuanjing.
On the other hand, Meng Jifang felt strange when he saw that scene.
What was the relationship between the Crown Prince and Witch Mo? Was the young lady of the Xie family taken by the Crown Prince as a shield?
If that was the case, then the Crown Prince was a terrible person. The young lady had a short life, and he bullied her like this. He was even worse than him!
However, Meng Jifang was unwilling but could not say anything to offend him, so he endured it.
The next day, when he saw Xie Qiao enter the academy with a smile on her face, he could not help but curl his lips. “What a fool.”
“What fool?” The person beside him could not help but ask.
Meng Jifang sighed and thought for a moment. Then, he leaped from where he was sitting. He dusted his hands and walked toward Xie Qiao.
He stopped Xie Qiao directly.
Xie Qiao was a little puzzled when a thin wall suddenly appeared in front of him.
“Xie Qiao, how long can you live?” Meng Jifang asked.
Many people thought Meng Jifang had gone too far.
Xie Qiao did not have long to live, so she should be quite sad. Yet, he deliberately triggered her. Was he not trying to anger her?!
“What’s wrong?” Xie Qiao looked indifferent.
If she could not stand a single word from Meng Jifang, she would have died of anger.
Were her own father and eldest brother not rascals?
“You won’t live long, so why did you agree to be the Princess Consort? Won’t your Father go to the palace to explain it for you?” Meng Jifang looked casual, yet it seemed like he did not want to talk to Xie Qiao.
It was a little strange and awkward.
Xie Qiao looked baffled.
However, in Meng Jifang’s eyes, Xie Qiao should have a helpless look.
That was true. The Xie family had always been unable to make a name for themselves. Now that she was finally becoming the Crown Prince’s wife, how could the bandits give up such a good opportunity?!
“I’ll give you an idea!” Meng Jifang said, “Don’t you have a serious illness? Go home and pretend to be sick. If you’re about to die, the Crown Prince can’t possibly marry you, right?”
Xie Qiao was even more confused. “What does it have to do with you?”
Her tone was flat, and she really did not understand.
“W-Why don’t you know what’s good for you?!” Meng Jifang suddenly felt insulted. He snorted and glared at Xie Qiao. “You deserve to be schemed against!”
After saying that, he left in anger.
Xie Qiao was dumbfounded.
What was Meng Jifang doing? Could he not explain clearly? She was schemed against? When did it happen? How come she did not know that?!
However, Meng Jifang was a fickle person. Earlier, he had offered a huge sum of money to place a bet between Xie Qiao and Xia Yayun. It was evident that he had always been a strange person.. All she had to do was to get used to him.
